Hacking the NSA website is not hacking the NSA. Hacking a website is relatively easy and not that interesting to people who deal with servers day-to-day.

- GhotiFish 13y agoRight, see. When you say "Relatively easy" do you mean: "it is just subtly easier that compromising the NSA itself" or: "I'm surprised it doesn't happen every day" because I think you meant the former.
- isaacb 13y agoI suspect the difference between hacking the NSA website and hacking the NSA's central computer system is more than subtle
- philwelch 13y agoWell, more to the point, it doesn't imply anything about the business end of the agency's systems being compromised. If you hacked into the actual CIA or NSA as in having similar access to an authenticated agent, that would be quite bad for them. Taking down their website is something they don't really care about.
